Modular Reuse of Ontologies: Theory and Practice
In this paper, we propose a set of tasks that are relevant for the modular reuse of ontologies. In order to formalize these tasks as reasoning problems, we introduce the notions of conservative extension, safety and module for a very general class of logic-based ontology languages. We investigate the general properties of and relationships between these notions and study the relationships betwe...
متن کاملA Formal Theory for Modular ERDF Ontologies
The success of the Semantic Web is impossible without any form of modularity, encapsulation, and access control. In an earlier paper, we extended RDF graphs with weak and strong negation, as well as derivation rules. The ERDF #n-stable model semantics of the extended RDF framework (ERDF) is defined, extending RDF(S) semantics. In this paper, we propose a framework for modular ERDF ontologies, c...
متن کاملExtracting Modules from Ontologies: Theory and Practice
The ability to extract meaningful fragments from an ontology is essential for ontology re-use. We propose a definition of a module that guarantees to completely capture the meaning of a given set of terms, i.e., to include all axioms relevant to the meaning of these terms, and study the problem of extracting minimally sized modules. We show that the problem of determining whether a subset of an...
متن کاملOntologies, Reuse and Domain Analysis
Ontology engineering is rapidly becoming an important discipline for the development of the semantic web. For many ontology applications, standard systems analysis methodology is an appropriate way to approach the systematic design of the ontology. For other applications, however, a domain analysis approach is more suited. This paper examines the sorts of applications that could benefit from a ...
متن کاملSchwab's Practical Theory: Integrate of Theory and Practice
The emergence of re-conceptualism in the field of curriculum studies caused a large rotation of identity in this field. The book titled "understanding of curriculum" by William Pinar may be considered the most outstanding work in the field. In this book, movement which affected pre re-conceptualist, are introduced as the traditional type and it is believed the new curriculum discourses should b...
